The school

Gorchakov Memorial School was conceived as, and strives to be, a contemporary rendering of the Tsarskoe Selo Lyceum.

We regard education as one of the most important aspects of a child's education and rearing and admit only children from families which share this belief and have high expectations for their children's education.

«Scholarship, accountability, morality» – Motto of Gorchakov Memorial School.

Our Campus

Gorchakov Memorial School is located on the territory of the former country residence of the architect Alexander Pavlovich Bryullov. The main building was designed by Bryullov himself in 1837, and construction began that same year.

The main building was designed by Bryullov himself in 1837, and construction began that same year. The first floor is constructed of stone, the second of timber, and the building is covered by a gable-style roof. To the west of the main building, connected by a two-story wing, is a four-story brick tower, topped with an observation platform and a dome similar to that of an observatory. Not only was astronomical observation a hobby of Bryullov's, he was also the architect of St. Peterburg's Pulkovo Astronomical Observatory.

Endowment fund

Owner's fund of the target capital "Endowment of the A.M. Gorchakov School" was registered in 2011.

The School Endowment Fund will provide a quality classical education for promising young men from families with modest incomes.

The fund is based on the philanthropists' donations for the development of the School which form target capital that is invested in the stock market, in real estate, is placed on deposits in order to obtain its constant growth. The target capital itself is inviolable, "eternal" - the school receives only income from investments.
